I think the most important takeaway is that he did not try and screw over the early shareholders, integrity is important. The story about the $280,000 drafting table is relevant, they needed the drafting table it contributed to the success, If you were to go down that line of thought I wonder how much each can of Soda bought for early Facebook employees "cost".
- LanceH 12y agoThere were a lot of drafting tables and tons of other stuff purchased totaling some unknown amount. But it was that drafting, in that place, with those cards which made a company. It's easy to criticize it for being $280k because we don't know the scenario where they don't have a table. Maybe that scenario is, "fuck it I'm not working on the floor any more" and the whole company is worth zero. Then there is the economics of it. Hindsight makes it all easy when you only question the costs of the winners.
